My Elisalex Dress from By Hand London. Made for Julia Bobbin’s Mad Men Challenge. I added a full lining and though the pattern calls for a heavy weight fabric I got around that by underlining my fashion fabric with silk organza.

This looks gorgeous and you looks so sophisticated! I love your fabric choice and the length. I shortened mine quite a lot but now you’re making me think another version in a longer length may be called for!
